Interesting that solvency was not one of the factors considered. I wonder how the USPS would have perform if they had to break even much not be a parasite on the taxpayers.

UPS and FedEx get government subsidies in the form of the interstate high way system, US federal highways, state highways and county and city roads. They also enjoy government services in air-traffic control. So the idea that UPS and FedEx are totally private and get no help from the taxpayers is false. They can also enjoy taxpayer funded courts to help settle disputes they have and tax-payer supported snow plows on roads. So once again they are also parasites.

This is what makes the idiot communists so comical.

They live in some sort of unicorn land where if I can do something in 2 days for $100 and they can provide in 1.5 days for $1,000,000, they call the latter superior to the former.
